I'm not sure I said that, did I? I said that one candidate has a track record whilst the other has been overlooked by his party whenever in government. So if people believe Corbyn will automatically be good when given any power to actually deliver things, I'm not sure there's any evidence to support that at all, as his own party have never felt him capable enough to hold any cabinet or shadow cabinet position in his entire 30+ years as a politician.

Listen mate, koff with that rubbish, the Orange Order and its supporters are well known bigots and antagonistic stains, they march through contentious areas to cause trouble and aggravate. When they don't get their own way they instigate riots and protests and cost the taxpayer millions. A quick Google search would help you find this all out.

The orange order along with its supporters and loyalist paramilitaries tried to intimidate young Catholic school girls in Ardoyne and their mothers, just for walking through a Protestant area to get to their school, (Google Holy Cross incident), they threw piss water balloons at the children and physically attacked them.

I grew up in Belfast so don't try to tell me different here because I've witnessed it first hand.

Real culture back home is the Irish language, Irish poetry, songs and traditional music, Ulster Scots is culture, Irish dancing and Irish celtic art is culture. The orange Order beating drums outside Catholic Chapels, attacking Catholics and their children and marching through contentious areas is KKKulture but it's certainly not CULTURE and you need your head checked if you think other wise. There's no room in this world for that sort of vile hatred and it should never be excused or considered culture, we no longer live in the 1600s though these dinosaurs do their best to drag us back to then.

Old news now, but anyrate.

Just had lunch with my eldest, 24. Non political, but deffo not a daft lad.

Voted Corbyn. Asked him why.

"The only one since Clegg who asked us to, and I had no idea what May was actually about"

Makes a simple but inescapable logic.

I remember watching that live on breakfast news. I've seen some weird things in my time but fully grown adults screaming abuse at young kids is up there with the most bizarre and disturbing.

That image is photoshopped as satire, I posted it a few pages back as I see little difference between the two organisations.

But yeah, not having those proddy bitches.

Literally all because Catholics were in their area... Sick in the head, the orange order were the driving force behind all of that along with the Red Hand Defenders (a paramilitary group who coincidently emerged from the Orange Order protests to march Drumcree when they were blocked from marching through a Catholic area)

Satire or not mate it's the truth. Madness these guys are even allowed to march all things considered. People protest against fascists coming to Liverpool when what you have here is the exact same thing only more prehistoric in mindset.

This one isn't photoshopped and was all over media outlets back home not long ago

He was a flag bearer for an orange march and his flag is a UVF one also, all sorts of wrong in this image... british-nationalism-in-ireland-racism-and-sectarianism-as-the-orange-order-celebrates-the-kkk.webp

Agree completely, and with everything you've posted. As I said, I posted the same image myself a few pages back.
